well, I evoked your response, at any rate. Which is an interesting response.

What you're saying is

"I'm too much a nihilist to have any but a cynical and dismissive response to your words, mr strauss."

Ok. I mean, well, I suppose that isn't really an interesting response after all. But I could imagine it being a response that might spark some interesting discussion. And if your comments accomplish that, then will my original post feel more valid to you as art?
